ActiveXperts Network Monitor 7.2.9.1025 is a Network Monitoring Software product from activexperts.com, get 5 Stars SoftSea Rating, This software monitors Windows, UNIX, LINUX and Novell computers and TCP/IP devices. It runs a service on a Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 platform. When the engine detects a failure, it alerts via network message, e-mail, pager, SNMP Trap (SNMP v1 and SNMP v2c) notification or SMS message (support for TAPI, Unicode, TAP, UCP and FBus). The program takes a corrective action automatically. It can monitor Microsoft SQL Servers through OLE-DB ADO interface, and Oracle through SQL*NET interface like TNS Ping. Other databases such as Access, FoxPro and Paradox.

Built-in Checks: Internet Protocols
DNS - Checks if a DNS server is working well by reading a particular 'A' record on the DNS server and verifying the result.
FTP - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check the availability of FTP sites. With the FTP check, you can check for a file in one of the subdirectories on the FTP server, and even check for a specific pattern in the file.
HTTP(s) - ActiveXperts Network Monitor allows you to check the availability of HTTP and HTTPs sites, on default ports (i.e.: 80 and 443) or on alternate ports. If the HTTP(s) server is not directly accessible, you can configure ActiveXperts Network Monitor to go through a Proxy server to access the particular HTTP(s) server, even passing credentials for that Proxy server (to be able to make use of the Proxy). Additionally, you can pass credentials (username and password) to access the actual HTTP(s) site if required. ActiveXperts Network Monitor supports web site content checking; contents of web sites can be searched for text patterns (including tags).
ICMP Ping - ICMP Ping checks a remote host for availability. Local hosts should normally respond to ping requests within milliseconds. However, on a very congested network it may take up to 3 seconds or longer to receive an echo packet from the remote host. If the timeout is set too low under these conditions, it will appear that the remote host is not reachable (which is almost the truth). ActiveXperts Network Monitor checks servers for availability by sending ICMP Echo commands and wait for the responds. An ICMP timeout failure doesn't necessarily mean that the remote host is actually functioning beyond its capability to echo packets.
IMAP MailServer - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check IMAP mail servers by establishing a connection on the remote IMAP port (usually port 143) and do a handshake. By handshaking, ActiveXperts Network Monitor can verify that the remote server's IMAP protocol is working well.
LDAP - LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) is a protocol for querying (and modifying) directory services like Microsoft Active Directory and Novell Netware.
NNTP - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check NNTP news servers by establishing a connection on the remote TCP port (usually port 119) and do a handshake. By handshaking, ActiveXperts Network Monitor can verify that the remote server's NNTP protocol is working well.
NTP - The NTP protocol is the protocol used to synchronize times between workstations and servers, and external time sources. ActiveXperts Network Monitor uses the IP based NTP protocol to check availability of internal and external time sources.
POP3 - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check POP3 mail servers by establishing a connection on the remote TCP port (usually port 110) and do a handshake. By handshaking, ActiveXperts Network Monitor can verify that the remote server's POP3 protocol is working well.
SMTP - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check SMTP mail servers by establishing a connection on the remote TCP port (usually port 25) and do a handshake. By handshaking, ActiveXperts Network Monitor can verify that the remote server's SMTP protocol is working well.
SMTP to POP3 - Checks if an Email service is working properly by sending a test Email message through an SMTP server and verifying that it has been delivered to the recipient's mailbox.
SNMP GET - SNMP means: Simple Network Management Protocol. The SNMP GET message allows the Network Monitor Engine to request information about a specific variable on a remote computer or device. The agent, upon receiving a GET message, will issue a GET-RESPONSE message to the Network Monitor Engine with either the information requested or an error indication as to why the request cannot be processed.
SNMP Traps - The SNMP Trap Receive check listens for real-time network traps for processing. An SNMP Trap Receive check works different than other checks in Network Monitor: the SNMP Trap Receive check is event-driven. The check is not executed at timed intervals, but is triggered as soon as a new trap is received.
TCP - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check local- or remote servers by challenging a specific port. It makes a connection to it, and performs a challenge/respond (by sending a sequence of bytes to it, wait for the respond and analyzing the received information).
TFTP - ActiveXperts Network Monitor can check the availability of TFTP hosts. With the FTP check, you can check for a file in one of the subdirectories on the TFTP host, and even check for a specific pattern in the file.
Built-in Checks: Windows
Anti-Virus - The Anti-Virus check allows monitoring various popular Anti-Virus packages on workstations and servers. The following Anti-Virus program packages are supported: McAfee VirusScan Enterprise, Norton Internet Security, Norton Anti-Virus, NOD32, Kaspersky Internet Security, Kaspersky Anti-Virus Server, Kaspersky Anti-Virus Workstation, Trend Micro Internet Security, Sophos Anti-Virus, !avast Anti-Virus, AVG Anti-Virus, Norman Anti-Virus, Panda Internet Security, Norman Anti-Virus.
CPU Usage - ActiveXperts Network Monitor provides the 'CPU Usage' check to monitor processor(s) on Windows platforms. When the CPU load exceeds the limit, an alert is generated. For multi-processor systems, you can select to monitor all CPU's (default) or monitor an individual CPU.
